You will note this story contains no details, even though the witness was presumably well qualified. No testimony regarding course, speed, appearance, exhaust, nothing. Was it flying like a cruise missile, a SAM, an air-to-air missle; did it maneuver, leave a contrail? There's just enough information to go ooooooooooooooooh.

Nothing in the media is worth a damn.
